On this episode of Jaded HR, we’ll unpack the surprising truth about a newly hired HR administrator who defies these labels, and share our unfiltered thoughts on the SHRM national conference. You’ll hear us laugh, rant, and rave about the tech glitches that wiped out a whole episode, and the rollercoaster ride of emotions when we lost Jason Sudeikis as a speaker and got Al Roker instead. Oh, and if you’re from Tyler, Texas, you might just get a special shout-out!Ever wondered how SHRM’s focus has shifted over the years from certifications to celebrity appearances? We dig into the nitty-gritty of SHRM’s evolving landscape, including the infamous split with HRCI and the ramifications for HR professionals everywhere. With skyrocketing membership dues and a perceived decline in resource quality, we question whether SHRM is really worth it. And we won’t shy away from the hot topic of politics in professional organizations, particularly Johnny C. Taylor’s advisory role to Trump and how it’s influenced SHRM's direction.But it’s not all doom and gloom. We’re big believers in the power of fan feedback, and we share our excitement over messages from listeners like you. From the mishandling of HR responsibilities in a family-owned company to the joy of connecting with our audience, this episode is packed with stories that will make you laugh, think, and maybe even shout at your device in agreement.
